About C.Bechstein

"I was simply very fortunate that a God of music was standing next to my workbench" - Carl Bechstein, 1868

The C.Bechstein piano factory was founded on the 1st October 1853 by Carl Bechstein in Berlin, Germany.

It was Bechstein's vision to manufacture a piano able to withstand the great demands imposed on the instrument by the virtuoso of the time. By 1870, with the endorsements by world renowned pianists such as Franz Liszt and Hans von Bülow, C.Bechstein pianos became a staple at many concert halls, as well as in private mansions across Europe.

Driven by a dedication to excellence and the quest for perfection, in 1885 C. Bechstein first supplied a piano to Queen Victoria. The gilded art-case piano was first delivered to the Buckingham Palace, then several more Bechstein pianos were delivered to Windsor Castle and other royal residences. C.Bechstein soon held a Royal Warrant as the official supplier of pianos to the Queen.

Whilst Carl Bechstein passed away in Berlin on 6 March 1900 his legacy lives on and C.Bechstein continue to produce arguably the highest quality pianos in the world to date.

To explore the sheer level of delicacy, precision and perfection that goes into every C.Bechstein piano, read our guide on The Philosophy of C.Bechstein here.

Whether it’s described as sheer fanaticism or the ultimate expression of the piano builder’s art, Concert line pianos by C.Bechstein are lovingly put together using the choicest materials, the most experienced technicians, and the finest workmanship on the planet. Adopted by pianist-composers such as Debussy, Liszt, Ravel, Bartók, and Wagner, these pianos are deeply rooted in the development of western classical music, and are still considered to this day to be amongst the finest pianos one can play.

As C. Bechstein Concert pianos have become exceedingly rare since the 1950’s, the experience of playing one can be a little surprising at first; these instruments have lighter key actions than equivalent American, Viennese, or Japanese pianos. Once one becomes accustomed to the instrument however, they are welcomed by the complex tonal palette and huge dynamic range that these pianos offer. The bass and tenor registers have unparalleled sense of solidity and homogeneity, yet speak with a refined clarity and transparency. The treble register has a crystalline brilliance, where the overtone content is bursting with energy and vibrancy.
